Maybe because in life you usually want what you can't have, I have always been attracted to skincare and makeup products with luscious textures that more often than not made my skin "twitch".

I first saw the Kimia skincare system at a fabulous shop in Lisbon and was intrigued, could a simple oil give everything my skin wanted and more? After going back and forth with the will to purchase it (mainly because of the £74 price tag), I decided to purchase it.

My complexion literally glows, now while skeptics might think that it glows because I'm applying oil directly against my skin but it's kind of like a glow from within, it's a lot more even and with a health tone to it and while I have no major wrinkles, it makes my skin look younger and healthier with absolutely no break-outs and areas that had a little discoloration are improving every day.

This product also makes my foundation blend like a dream and I'm using less product (for reference I am using the NARS Tinted Moisturizer in Finland) and without any alterations to the texture or color.

This is a product that if it keeps up its performance, I'll definitely start saving to buy a spare as I don't want to run out of product and probably one of the most pleasant surprises I had this year in terms of skincare.
